Frigidaire FRS26ZRFD1 ユーザーズマニュアル

Your ice maker is turned on at the factory so it can 

work as soon as you install your refrigerator. If you 

cannot connect a water supply, turn the ice maker’s 

On/Off switch to Off. Otherwise, the ice maker’s 

fill valve may make a loud chattering noise when it

attempts to operate without water.

Small ice cubes or ice chips jamming in the ice maker 

may be a sign that your water filter needs changing.

If you have a side mounted ice maker you may also 

experience hollow cubes partially frozen cubes with 

water inside. When these cubes are harvested, they 

break open and spill water over the other ice cubes in 

the ice container, forming a solid mass of ice. As the 

water filter nears the end of its useful life and becomes

clogged with particles, less water is delivered to the ice 

maker during each cycle. The ice maker can’t fill every

cube in the ice maker mold, leading to small cubes 

or chips that can get caught between the ice ejector 

blades and the stripper.  Remember, if  your ice maker 

is jamming with small ice cubes or it’s been six months 

or longer since you last changed your water filter

replace the water filter with a new one. Poor quality

household water may require the filter to be changed

more frequently.

Your refrigerator’s water supply system includes several 

tubing lines, an advanced water filter, a distribution valve

bank, and a reserve tank to ensure ample supply to the 

ice and water dispenser at all times. This system needs 

to be completely filled with water when first connected to

an external supply line. 

  1  Begin filling the tank by pressing and holding a

drinking glass against the water dispenser paddle.

  2  Keep the glass in this position until water comes 

out of the dispenser. It may take about 1½ 

  3  Continue dispensing water for about three minutes 

to flush the system and plumbing connections of

any impurities (stopping to empty the glass as 

necessary).

The ice maker, ice bin, and dispenser feeding mechanism 

are located in the top of the freezer compartment. After 

the refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled for 

several hours, the ice maker can produce ice within 24 

hours. It can completely fill an ice bin in about two days.
The ice maker produces four to six pounds of ice every 

24 hours depending on usage conditions. Ice is produced 

at a rate of eight cubes every 75 to 90 minutes.

Before making ice for the first time, be sure to prime the

water supply system. Air in new plumbing lines can result 

in two or three empty ice maker cycles. Furthermore, 

if the system is not flushed, the first ice cubes may be

discolored or have an odd flavor.

Ice production is controlled by the ice maker’s On/Off 

power switch. To gain access to the ice maker, pull the 

extra shelf out (some models). Press the switch to the 

“O” position to turn it Off and press to the “I” position to 

turn it On.



The water dispenser has a built-in device that shuts 

off the water flow after three minutes of continuous

use. To reset this shutoff device, simply release the 

dispenser paddle. 



The ice maker also has a built-in wire signal arm, that  

automatically stops ice production when the ice bin is 

full. This signal arm should not be used to manually 

stop the ice maker.

For proper dispenser operation, recommended water 

supply pressure should fall between 30 psi and 100 

psi. Excessive pressure may cause water filter to

malfunction.
